With over 22 years of experience, my work is to help facilitate a greater alignment and expression of your distinct, authentic nature and thus help you to imbue your life with enriched meaning and fulfillment. Our work together will reawaken and draw upon your intrinsic wholeness, and you will recover healing and growth in life’s wounds, sorrows, and setbacks.

You will learn to identify, understand, and disempower self-defeating thought patterns and outdated behaviors, and you will replace limiting perspectives with the genuine awareness of wide open options, possibilities, and resources. As your connection with yourself and your insight deepen, you will give rise to fresh opportunities and directions. A singular array of beautiful and radiant qualities is your birthright; together we will cultivate the unique beauty that is yours.

I offer a relational, psychotherapeutic process where you can begin to locate and manage stress symptoms that are blocking the path to healing. Through a creative approach that integrates compassionate, traditional methods with unique somatic and experiential techniques, we can explore and discover your truest Self.

Who may benefit from this work are people experiencing anxiety and stress associated with major life transitions. People passing through times of grief and loss. Also, someone struggling to manage, nurture or deepen everyday relationships.
